Spring has sprung! Well, sort of (...I say this mainly because I don't know if it's actually
Spring or not. Probably not).

I saw the first blossom tree a week or so ago! And now I'm seeing them everywhere.
Which is awesome because as much as I like autumn and winter, the trees are bare and
branches are only pretty to a certain extent.
Also, I'm seeing lots of daffodils growing. Though not quite grown yet, they're getting there.

So I thought I'd create a Spring wish list and share it with you! I've seen some lovely
Spring themed things in the shops lately.
For Spring, I'm liking pale colours. Light blues, light greens, light pinks. And light florals.
Flowy dresses. Lace. Bows. And all those lovely things.

The shoes are a definite favourite. I like brown-ish/nude coloured shoes for Spring.
And midi skirts, because Spring is slightly warmer so you can just about bare not having
to wear knit tights or jeans.

Also sorry for my absence, I've missed a few days of the makeup challenge.
But I took a few days to gain sanity, become less busy and catch up with a few things.

I'll be back posting photos for the makeup challenge from Monday.(I won't be starting again, I'll be carrying on from Day 20, or wherever we're up to etc. but obviously it won't be photos from the days I missed, it'll be Monday onwards).
I hope you have a great weekend!
What are your Spring staples? Let me know below! :)

Happy Tuesday! I'm finallyyy getting round to posting about my Urban Decay x Gwen Stefani
lipsticks. Sorry it took ages!
I actually originally bought them on the day they released, but at the time of shipping
they were sold out so I didn't get them.
But either way, I got them in the end a few days later.
I believe 2 of them are online exclusives (but I could be wrong).

I got: Phone Call, Rock Steady & Firebird

They come in pretty white and gold boxes with pink and white polka dots on the inside.

And the lipsticks themselves are a beautiful black and gold design.

I'm a big fan of lipstick that goes straight on, the colour's right there and you don't have to apply it a couple of times before it shows. That's what these are like.

They're beautifully glossy and pigmented, especially Rock Steady. It's such a bold colour and definitely a new favourite darker lipstick of mine.

But the other two are equally as lovely!

Top to Bottom: Rock Steady, Phone Call, Firebird.

Overall, I love these! Now I just need the rest of the collection...(that sound you heard was my bank account screaming)
Have you tried any of the lipsticks in the collection?
Or any other new lipsticks recently?
Let me know!♥ - Fay
